CHAPTER 112.

An act for the benefit of Elijah Friend, of Allegany
County.

Passed Jan.
26, 1844.

Whereas, Elijah Friend, of Allegany county, has re-
presented to this general assembly, that on the sixteenth day
of July eighteen hundred and forty-three, he, together with
a certain Isaac Friend, entered into a recognizance to the
State of Maryland in the penalty of one hundred dollars,
before Edmund Hill, one of the justices of the peace of
said county, for his own appearance in Allegany county
court as a witness for the State, but by a mistake of the
magistrate in drawing up said recognizance, he was also
by the terms of said recognizanee, made liable for the ap-
pearance of said Isaac Friend, at said court, contrary to
his own intention, as well as that of the said magistrate;
and whereas the said Elijah Friend, did himself duly ap-
pear, and thereby comply with said bond as far as it was
meant he should be bound; and whereas the said Isaac
Friend did not appear, in consequence of which, accord-
ing to the strict terms of said bond, it is thought that the
said Elijah Friend would be answerable for the penalty of
said bond, which in the opinion of this legislature would
be unjust and unreasonable—Therefore,

Preamble.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland,
That the said Elijah Friend, be, and he is hereby discharg-
ed from all liability to the State, under said bond, in con-
sequence of the non-appearance of the said Isaac Friend
as aforesaid.

Discharged
from liability.
